Chapter 131: Chapter 104: Seizing the Opportunity_2Chen Feng was too embarrassed to rush her, after all, she was doing it for filial piety, instead, he told her not to worry and that it was fine if she came back later. For this, Sun Xiaorui was, of course, very grateful to Chen Feng. However, she did not thank Chen Feng again. Because, no matter how many thanks she said, they all seemed pale at that moment. She planned to repay him well with her own abilities after returning to Xiu Zhou, through actual actions. That day, Chen Feng was very lucky to have acquired another painting for only 30,000 yuan. Then, he happily went to the market himself, bought a lot of groceries, and brought them to the two ladies, asking Wu Mengting to cook. This sort of thing, Chen Feng was now very accustomed to, and so were Lin Wan and Wu Mengting. Wu Mengting was only too eager, thinking about spending days and nights with Chen Feng, and letting feelings develop naturally, whereas Lin Wan was working under Chen Feng and got to eat for free often, what could she complain about? Therefore, the three of them eating together had become very natural and a common occurrence. It was precisely because Chen Feng could eat the homemade dishes cooked by Wu Mengting every day, and chat and laugh with the two beauties, that his longing for Sun Xiaorui had unconsciously faded quite a bit. People are like this, if they are apart for a long time, the longing also slowly fades. After all, there had not been any unforgettable stories between them, let alone life-and-death experiences. So, many so-called feelings, under the continuous erosion of time, slowly dilute, and even eventually leave no trace. "Boss, that fat lady brought her son over for a visit again last night, the frequency is getting more frequent. You have to help us find a solution. It would be best if you could help us find a place nearby to move to." At the dining table, Lin Wan brought up the matter of moving house to Chen Feng again. She had mentioned it many times these days. It was mainly because she couldn’t stand the relentless harassment from their landlord Aunt Wang. Chen Feng looked at Wu Mengting, who also said with some distress, "It seems that Aunt Wang has taken a liking to me and is constantly trying to set me up on a date with her son." Upon hearing this, Chen Feng immediately felt very uncomfortable inside, Wu Mengting was, after all, his... fellow townsman. If Aunt Wang had taken a fancy to Lin Wan, Chen Feng might have joked a bit, letting her give Little Ming, Aunt Wang’s son, a chance. But if it was Wu Mengting, Aunt Wang and her son were really out of their mind. Chen Feng couldn’t help speaking up, "Aunt Wang really has some thick skin. Doesn’t she know what her son is like? She’s really a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh." Lin Wan immediately agreed, "Exactly. I told her clearly last time that we are not looking for boyfriends right now, but she still persists. I’m really fed up with her." After pondering for a moment, Chen Feng said, "How about this. You could move your belongings to my store for now, and stay in a hotel. I’ll pay for it. In the meantime, we can look for a new place together." Lin Wan quickly said, "Why stay at a hotel, isn’t that a waste of money? It’s better if we temporarily move in with you. It saves you from running to our place every day. And then, it will be convenient for Tiantian to cook for you every day." Chen Feng was taken aback and also understood her intentions. It turns out she still had his villa in mind. Seeing Chen Feng momentarily lost for words, Lin Wan pressed on, "Boss, you’re not going to be stingy about letting us stay, are you? We’re only staying temporarily, and your place is so big, isn’t it a waste for you to live there alone? Also, aren’t you scared sleeping alone in such a big house at night?" That really was the case! Seeing Chen Feng’s troubled look, Wu Mengting immediately said, "Let’s endure it for a few more days. It’s almost a month now. Let’s take these next few days to look for another place." Hearing Wu Mengting say this, and thinking it over, Chen Feng then said, "Originally, as a man, living with you two women, there would certainly be some inconveniences. But since neither of you mind, what is there for a man like me to mind? However, I must clarify one thing. Little Rui hasn’t come back yet; she said she’ll be back in ten days to half a month. By that time, it would not be convenient for you to stay anymore. You don’t have any objections, right?" Chen Feng mainly wanted to make sure Lin Wan wouldn’t stick around and refuse to leave, so he was mainly addressing her with these remarks. Lin Wan muttered discontentedly, "As if we’d stick around and not leave." Wu Mengting promptly said, "Don’t worry, it’s just for a few days. When we find a place, we’ll move out." Seeing this, Chen Feng had no good reason to say anything else. After all, he had said what he needed to say; they were all friends now, and some things shouldn’t be said too harshly. "Well then. Just let me know when you’re moving." Lin Wan immediately said, "Let’s move after dinner. I’ve had enough of that fat lady." Wu Mengting didn’t object either. It seemed they really had enough of Aunt Wang. Chen Feng had no objections either. So after dinner, Lin Wan immediately called the moving company. The main reason they called the moving company was that the two women couldn’t bear to part with the mattresses they had purchased not long ago. They could pack and move the rest of their belongings to Chen Feng’s place themselves. As for the two mattresses, they would first be moved to the storage area behind Chen Feng’s shop, which had always been empty. A little over two hours later, they finally got the move sorted out. The two women got their wish and moved into the East Lake Villa next to Chen Feng’s place. In one of the back rooms on the second floor, which was about thirty square meters, there was already a solid wood bed that was 2.2 meters in size. All the women had to do was lay out the bedding. After making the bed, Lin Wan collapsed onto it in an ungraceful sprawl and, with a contented sigh, said to Wu Mengting, who was still unpacking, "Tiantian, do you think Brother Feng has already bought this villa?" "No way. This villa costs twenty to thirty million, didn’t Brother Feng say last time that he couldn’t afford it?" "You actually believe that nonsense. I think he’s richer than we imagine. He’s just low-key about it. Didn’t you see him buy a painting for over a million without even blinking an eye?" "It was me who told you about that. Master Wang Yi’s painting is indeed worth that much." "I don’t care about that. What I do feel is that our boss is very wealthy, richer than we thought. So, you better make your move soon. Otherwise, once Sun comes back, you’ll have no chance. Take advantage of his current single status, and swoop in while the opportunity is there. Get it?" "I don’t get it." "Ah! You infuriating girl, I’ve been helping you all this hard, and now we’ve finally moved in here. ’Those who live by the water have the first chance at the moon.’ Sun isn’t around, and opportunities like this come once in a lifetime. If you miss out on this chance to catch a rich husband, even the heavens will punish you." "We’ve already come to an understanding, to let things take their natural course. Our current relationship is quite good, without awkwardness or discomfort. If I were to take it a step further, we might not even be able to remain friends." "You’re so exasperating! Do you intend to be just his friend forever? If so, I have nothing more to say. If not, why don’t you try a little harder? ’A woman chasing a man is separated by a mere layer of gauze,’ you know that, right? Men are lecherous, and they also possess a strong sense of ownership. Didn’t you say you were still a virgin? Trust me, if you give him your first time, he will surely take responsibility for you. He’ll want to keep you for the long term. That’s just how men are. By then, everything between you two will naturally fall into place." "You really are... Look, I know what I’m doing." "Sigh, you’re so stubborn. If you don’t seize this opportunity, you’ll regret it one day. If you weren’t my sister, I would’ve made a move already." "You should know that he really doesn’t have any romantic feelings for you." "Go on, how do you know he’s not interested in me?" "Isn’t it obvious? Don’t pretend you don’t know." "..." At that moment, Chen Feng was downstairs contacting Li Chungang. He had painted two paintings in the past few days, one ink wash and one oil painting, took a video and a few photos, and sent them to Chen Feng. Unfortunately, through the video and photos, Chen Feng didn’t feel any energy from the two paintings. Chen Feng had done experiments in the past, through which he could slightly sense whether these paintings had any attraction to him via videos and photos. So, to avoid the hassle of traveling back and forth, he maintained contact with Li Chungang, and Zhang Lidong, the amateur young painter he had met before this way. If they had new paintings, they would contact Chen Feng. If Chen Feng was interested, he would buy them. Unfortunately, for many days, the ten or so paintings that Zhang Lidong had made were not to Chen Feng’s liking. And now, neither were Li Chungang’s two paintings. This was somewhat disappointing for Chen Feng. After all, the two folk painters were among the "cash cows" that Chen Feng valued most; he was waiting for them to produce ’milk’ for him to ’drink.’
